Project Purpose

INDY ANGLICAN NETWORK Project 2016

My name is Dave+ Kulchar, Anglican Priest and church consultant.

As of January 1, 2016 I have been asked to help move the formation of the Indy Anglican Network one more step forward towards a more formal and active ministry.  The IANetwork is a group in formation  of like-minded Christians who want to partner together to help each other live out their faith and mission in the Indianapolis Area and surrounding region.  The goal is to become faithful and effective followers of Christ in this broken world and to bring others into the community of faith.

The scope of this particular project is to first recognize and acknowledge what the Lord is already doing in bringing Christians who are drawn to a Word and Sacrament style of discipleship to the Indianapolis area.  The overall goal is to produce a documented case for the establishment of an Indy Network Missioner,  define the need and responsibilities around Network objectives and develop a support base for a part-time or full-time Missioner who will help coordinate existing work and develop new congregations in the area.

Here are the 5 short term  goals of this project to be completed by April 2016

1)  Survey & Connect with Existing Anglican Churches, Leaders and Home Groups

2)  Conduct a Statistical and Demographic Analysis of Indy and other potential areas for Evangelical Sacramental work using existing data

3)  Identify and Invite Core participants (both lay and clergy) to formalize an Indy Anglican Network.

4)  Develop an embryonic Vision Statement which would include specific yet open ended ways of establishing Anglican Faith Communities in the area.  But also articulate how these Anglican ministries might partner and work together in the work of evangelism, discipleship and service.

5)  Host 2-3 initial Vision Casting gatherings to begin to formalize a committed church planting network and raise pledges so the IANetwork could call a part-time or full-time Missioner/Network Facilitator by summer or fall of 2016.
